Caramel Filled Chocolate Cookies
- Ready In:
- 1hr 32mins
- Ingredients:
- 10
- Yields:
-
48 cookies
ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 1⁄4 cups flour
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 48 chocolate-covered caramel candies (I use Rollos)
directions
- Beat butter until creamy.
- Gradually beat in white sugar and brown sugar.
- Beat in eggs and vanilla.
- Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa.
- Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well.
- Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
- Divide dough into 48 pieces.
- Start by dividing dough into four equal pieces; then divide each piece into thirds; then each of those pieces in half to make 24; and each of those in half again to make 48 pieces.
- Flatten each piece slightly and return to refrigerator.
- Working with a few at a time, and leaving the remainder in the frige, press a piece of dough around a rollo, being careful to cover it completely.
- (I find the rollos easier to handle when they're pre-chilled) Roll into a ball.
- Place 2-inches apart on a greased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 8 minutes in preheated 375°.
- Let cool for 3-4 minutes before removing from baking sheet or caramel will run out the bottom of cookie.
